(1 point) college officials want to estimate the percentage of students who carry a gun, knife, or other such weapon. how many randomly selected student

Answer :

Probability Theory

P (K) =[tex]\frac{n (K) }{n (S)}[/tex]

P(K) : probability of selected K

n (K) : number of occurence of K

n (S) : number of all occurence

In question is not contain information about the number of students who curry a gun, knife, or other weapon and the number of all students. so, we can desribe that :

n (A) : the number of occurence of students who curry a gun

n (B) : the number of occurence of students who curry a knife

n (C) : the number of occurence of students who curry other weapon

and the number of all students is n ( A U B U C) -> union of sets

how many randomly selected student? in question, there is no specific about the student. so, we can answer with :

1) probability of students who curry a gun

P (A) = [tex]\frac{n (A) }{n (AUBUC)}[/tex]

2) probability of students who curry a knife

P (B) = [tex]\frac{n (B) }{n (AUBUC)}[/tex]

3) probability of students who curry other weapon

P (C) = [tex]\frac{n (C) }{n (AUBUC)}[/tex]

and if question want to estimate with percentage, we can multiply with 100%. example :

1) percentage of probability of students who curry a gun

P (A) = [tex]\frac{n (A) }{n (AUBUC)}[/tex] x 100%
